- Masking Details
- Blinding to the child participants and legal guardian of each participating child, inter examiner and statistician. The operator and the child were blinded to the intervention from the beginning till teeth polishing. Blinding cannot be done during application of remineralizing agents because of clear visual differences between these agents.
